Metamaterials create mechanisms from a single piece of plastic. A door latch and a pair of pliers are among the mechanisms created without screws, bolts or other fixings by researchers working with a new technology called metamaterials (+ movie).

The team at the Hasso Plattner Institute's Human Computer Interaction Lab design objects that move despite being 3D printed as one single part. To do this they use metamaterials – a type of engineered material defined by its internal structure rather than what substance it is made of. Metamaterials have properties not found in nature, as with the real-life "invisibility cloak".

The objects created can have controlled directional movement, which means they can perform set mechanical functions, like gripping something or latching a door.
An education in the UK currently slides between £3,000 and £9,000 per year, and with many students struggling to find work after the golden gates of uni close you'd be forgiven for thinking 'what's the point?

By The Playlist Staff | The Playlist February 26, 2015 at 3:21PM As the dust cleared from our Best of 2014 features, 2015 previews and awards season coverage, we realized something terrifying: we’re now halfway through the current decade.

Five years have passed since the 2010s began, we’re all sixty months (or sixty two?) Older, and literally thousands of movies have hit theaters in that time. So what better time to take stock of the decade thus far?

Arte. Sons. Cunnilingus Sex Positions. India: Baby Born With Two Minds in Same Body. Mumbai| Doctor Jagadhish Parsa, who assisted yesterday in the birth of a baby born with a rare malformation causing him to have two distinct brains crammed inside his head, claims that the newborn could be a unique case of two separate minds sharing a single head and body.

Tamish and Rajiv Mukeherjee were born at 09:10 AM at the Saiffe Hospital, after a long and complicated surgical operation meant to extract them safely from their mother’s womb.The boys are a unique case of disrosopus, a rare condition in which twins share the same body but have separate faces and brains. In the case of Tamish and Rajiv, the twins share both the same face and the same body, with each of them controlling only one side. The boys’ father, Hakesh Mukerjee, seemed a bit overwhelmed by all the attention given to his family since the birth of the twins. The size of his head, which already caused many complications at the time of his birth, will without a doubt constitute a major problem.

The Kitschiest Hotel in the World. Imagine a place where caveman bedding, lime green carpeting and hotel rooms named after cultural ethnicities went unquestioned; where the sound of electric waterfalls and squeaking plastic leather seating was welcomed.

O Grande Arquivo de Ervas Que Curam. Jogos e treinamentos cerebrais. Wonderwheel Recordings. Argentian producer Pedro Canale aka Chancha Via Circuito returns from a three-year sojourn with his long awaited third album, Amansara. Originally coming out of Buenos Aires's famed digital cumbia scene, Chancha has notoriously broken way outside those boundaries to forge unprecedented mergers between Brazilian rhythms, Paraguayan harp, Andean mysticism and the solitude of Argentinian folklore - all processed through his own futuristic style of post-dubstep. Chancha's sound is without question truly unique and instantly recognizable to the point he has become a key reference point for an entire crop of artists that have begun to carry his genes. Hailed by the Washington Post, the New York Times, Pitchfork, NPR and countless others, Chancha Via Circuito defies even the shrewdest of marketing geniuses. Amansara is a natural progressing of Chancha's special strain of electronic South America.

This prompted him to explore different media, within an architectural theme.
Papel de Parede I love the 70s. DIY Geodome - building your own. Yesterday saw me creating the first of five window frames that gets installed in the triangular space between the two hub 1s, on the third tier of the dome. The cutting of the wood was rather tricky, but I managed to do a half-decent job. The window opening was measured and each side was 700mm. Now maths teaches us that triangles of equal length are called equilateral triangles, and all the internal angles are the same.

So each corner must be 60 degrees. My daughter and I fed left-over planks through the table saw, and cut strips of 15mm x 32mm x 1m.
Existentialism in Cinema list. The dead hours, empty passages, the fleeting and poignant desire to hear no more, to see no more, to remain silent and motionless. He wanted to believe that his own lack of movement had stopped all movement in the world, the way a hibernating frog abolishes winter. We never get used to things, never feel content.

Thomas Knights' photography proves red headed men can be 'sexy' and 'heroic' in New York exhibition. By Olivia Fleming for MailOnline Published: 17:40 GMT, 1 September 2014 | Updated: 00:13 GMT, 3 September 2014 'We've been conditioned to think that good looking ginger men don't exist, but there are a lot out there,' said British photographer and natural red head, Thomas Knights.

In his first solo exhibition, opening September 3 at New York's BOSI gallery, Mr Knights has captured 40 red headed American men to challenge long-held stereotypes, and prove that they can be leading-man material, too. 'Red headed actors are portrayed as undesirable, angry, and weak characters - or the bad guy,' said the 31-year-old photographer. 'They are never the heartthrob, the hero or the action star, and it has created this notion that all ginger men are ugly and weak.
